“I feel I needed to step up and help the team win the game, so I needed to push up a little bit,” Ramos said via translator after Friday’s match.

Ramos was consistent presence down the team’s right flank on Friday, combining well with midfielder John Goossens in the team’s transition from defense to attack.
